Hi, Im new to android and i just bought the Huawei Honor II U9508 2gb ram with android 4.1.2 and with huawei's Emotion UI 1.5.
The problem is that Google play store didnt come with the phone and i have tried installing it with 4share but everytime i get an error that says u "Unfortunately, Google Play has Stopped" I have tried many things like deleting chache and deleting email. Do i have to Root to get it to work?
Another thing is that i really like to have my phone rooted.. as i said has android 4.1.2 and huawei's Emotion UI 1.5 (2gb ram)
Thanks in advance!
Edit: also i really like to get rid of the Chinese in for example browser (have it set on english but still alot of Chinese) and Youtube didnt work in browser at all. In the commericals i see Voice Assistant in english but i have it in Chinese (any way to change it)
I read a little about it in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2039998 but was a bit confused. Can anyone write here for this version if you find out? Really need this

You need to install (flash) gapps.zip from recovery mode.
copy zip file to your sd card.
from recovery mode, choose install zip from sd card
select zip file and install it. then reboot system.
when reboot, you can see play store app and can use it.

I have a 10.1 tab and I never had problem going to Android Market or recently updated to Google Play Store. However, since last night I was trying to download a ADWtheme and it was getting some kind of -101 error downloading. I realized that all of the apps are giving me the same error. So i tried going to settings-->manage applications-->and clear the cache for the google play Store and also tried to unistall the updates back to original Android Market but still giving me "server error, Retry". Now absolutely no entry to the market. What is going on?? I tried signing out from the google account and re-signin but the same error message.
I wish I can uninstall the market and reinstalling it, but if i unistall the market how can i get it back?? do i have to download the apk from the computer first?? This is really getting frustrated. I hope someone can give me a solution. Greatly appreciated.
Thanks in Advance.

Can you get to the google play store from a browser? If not maybe it is actually a server problem or issue between your ip and the server. It's happened to me at least once but resolved itself.

Yes, I can access through the browser. But this problem is since last nite (more than 24 hour so far and going). Just don't think it should behave like that. However, my galaxy S2 phone can access randomly but not my tab. Well, if anyone has a solution. Please let me know.

Root Explorer has always been there on the market, maybe they took it down for some reasons, eitherway you can always find it via Google
You can also us the ES File Explorer. There you have to enable "root explorer" and "mount system" in the setings.
Another possibility is to use the Filemanager HD,whereyou also have to enable the same settings.
Both work on my tab and I can edit system files.

Then try redownloading the apk file. Maybe download is corrupt or something.
And if possible, use google play
Astro is just root explorer that can be used to explore root files. It doesnt have anything regarding installation of APKs (apps) unless they have to be thrown directly into FS.
I tried to redownload, I also downloaded from another mirror...
I can't download from the store because what I'm trying to install is a full cracked version...
I guess something in ICS doesn't allow the installation of these kinds of APKs...

You don't say if you are unlocked and have a recovery?
Doing a factory reset will not bring back deleted apps as it only wipes the cache etc.
Re installing should have brought them apps back but I don't know how you are tying to re install.. Can you give a little bit more information on what I have asked please.

Hi There Have rooted device but other than that everything is stock. Sorry cant really provide much more info than that just used the steps in the guide quoted above.
When i say reinstall i mean starting a fresh from the beginning of the guide listed above. Have found out i am missing the google services framework.APK as well anyone know where i can get a copy thats on the TFP, i have downloaded a few but the install fails every time i try, would these be device specific?

You will not be able to just install it. You will have to copy it into system/app folder using a file manager that has root support like es file explorer or root explorer.

I'm really not sure what you deleted all together but try this.
GO to settings-apps and go to "all"
Scroll down to Google play services and google play store and force stop both and clear data and cache for both.

Any reason why you can't unlock the device and install a recovery so you can install custom roms? or are you trying to keep your warranty intact ?
I'm also not sure why you can't just do part 3 of the instructions you followed in the original post to put jellybean back on again. ( then again you have edited so many files this might not be advisable.)

As you said i am trying to keep warranty in place at the moment, i thought that following section three would work as well as i only accidentally changed the files from the system when i had installed but every time i have tried it doesnt reinstall the apks that were removed.
Hi all,
I am new to this and sorry if I am repeating a thread. I have searched and haven´t really found my answer.
So I bought a Chinese phone with MTK6735 and Android 5.1. The phone does not come rooted.
The issue is that it does not come with Google Play or the GAPPS. I downloaded a copy of Google Play and installed it directly from the web browser of my phone. Now, when I click on the Play store, it doesn't really open, it's as if fails to load the app. (crashing immediately).
Can someone please advise?
Thanks
Download Google Play Services
All you need to do i download Google play services.
You can find the link by searching on Google.
Download the gapps .
Download the Gapps (search google)and flash it through recovery then it may work,i am not sure but i think it will work

The Play Store crashes because it must be installed as a system app, and when you install it from an .apk it installs as a user app. It must be converted to a system app. But this requires root.
Sorry to bother again. I have tried with many methods and I still can´t.
I have tried downloading a google installer by Eric Xiang. This installed the Google frameworks and play services, but when I open Play store, it just tells me "Unfortunate, Google Play Services has stopped working". So, there's no way to open it.
Alternatively, I have tried to root it, and then install a recovery (as it was not installed by default). But here, I am having problems in rooting the device. I have tried with latest version of Kingroot and still failed. Not too sure, it may be because the device is with Android 5.1? or because the device has one of the latest Mediatek chips MT6735?

It's pretty straightforward, there are several apps that do this. You can search in Baidu.com for Gapps and the apk will show up. Install it, press the big button and there you go. You can also find several tutorials in Youtube, if you don't know how the app looks like.
Alternatively, here's another tutorial with a different app: http://en.miui.com/thread-17910-1-1.html
somehow i'm able to install Gapps using the installer, i don't know what i did to fix it, anyway its all good now, btw the link you gave is for device that is not bootloader locked
The minimum set of Gapps are very easy to install with the help of this tiny online installer. It's in Chinese, but it's intuitive.

This is the tools that i was using when trying to install Gapps, and after countless of failed effort, somehow it works on its own, i don't know what happened
For me NewGoogleInstaller works flawlessly on all firmwares, including the latest 7.2.4.
yeah, but now i'd like to know how can i set google playstore as a default app store instead of Mi app store
Everything is installed following the process but I can't download any apps from the app store..

You must update Google services
And Google Play at the same time.

I did. Well, not exactly the 'same time' but I have updated them..Now, play store is just stuck at a loading circle screen.

Reboot your phone.
"At the same time" means can be done, but not necessarily.

Same here first time, but removed Google*, installed them again and it started working. I rebooted after Google login, Xunlei engine was disabled and download limit set to Unlimited.
it seem that after you login to playstore, you need to wait for a while for it to sync in order for you to be able to download apps, otherwise you'll get unable to contact server error message

Gotcha. Rebooting didn't change anything at first but I just kept rebooting (..a lot) and it seems to work now.

I can't find Xunlei engine.. But rebooting (numerous times) seems to work now.. Just hope it stays that way...
Xunlei engine is in Downloads apps settings.

the google installer worked to install the apps but they couldn't establish a connection to the servers. I had to restore my playstore and google apps from a titanium backup file I had and then it would work. So anyone not able to get on google apps try installing old titanium backups, it may work.
One thing to note with all of these is sometimes it just needs time.
After all, the play services and framework often have to register with Google and also update themselves (you're not guaranteed to get the most up to date version for each even with the installer).
I installed mine and they registered fine. But as soon as I tried to download an app from the play store I got weird errors.
Left it a day and boom, worked fine.
